But most of the same information can be used on our Celica as well. Good information is good information.

New Member Posts: 1 phx	how about a more simple solution...Use the factory lowpro jack(i havent met a lowered car that didnt like it) then jack it up enough to stick a real jack in underneath it....

My Celica with with R2 sideskirts and ANY drop with 17" rims/45profile tires, the factory jack barely clears it. Because I also have side skirts - as soon as you do get a jack into the correct lifting locations, the angle of the jack bends the side skirts

The rear end goes up and one tire practically goes up as if your in three wheel motion. Ramps are the way to go. Throw dem down and your off.

All you need to get from the lumber store is 3 seperate 12" by 12' peices, and cut those, and you get exactly what you need, with about a foot of wood left over.
